Coastal Inspired Guest Room

Due to Spoleto’s attractions and our gorgeous spring weather, Charleston is particularly charming in May—which means out-of-town pals start queueing up to visit. Prepare your guest room for the busy season with these coastal-cool pieces selected by design pro Deidre Alexander. “Subtle pops of color make guests feel welcome without overwhelming the eye,” she advises.
